I'm putting this up here as a resource to keep track of our squad and seeing how it changes off the trade and draft season. I will upload changes as they happen. Pretty simple organisation: colour indicates age group, number on the left is age at the beginning of the 2021/2022 Season, number on the right is games.

The reality is that Adam Simpson is still our coach and that means there will be very little change.

I expect Hurn and JK will play on.

Delisted will be Venables, Ainsworth, ah chee and Hutchings

Possible Trade for picks or players - Brander and possibly Waterman

Draft a bunch of kiddies to play WAFL for the next 3 years and the round 1 side will be very similar to our current side.
I don't expect any major change to how we do things until a new coach is upon us and that could be many years away.

I also expect us to have another crack at winning the flag and therefor it will rely on a modified game plan and hunger from the players. Once again we need to understand it can be very difficult for Coaches to totally turn their back on what they have been doing. I honestly expect change will be more from the playing group in their attitude and hunger than from the coach.
 
First round of delistings has been reflected in the OP.

I have also included the current indicative draft picks.

Changes 17/09/2021

Retirement: Venables, Vardy

Delisting: Hutchings, Ah Chee, Collins, Johnson, Ainsworth

Traded out:

Traded in:

Drafted:

With Port knocked out of the finals our picks currently stand at 10, 29, 35, 49 and 65.
While there have been social media posts about Cameron leaving, since there has been no official word yet I am keeping him on this list

So that’s 3 main list spots confirmed with Cameron and Brander likely to join them?

Well there’s your five picks in the draft I guess.
 
Could be worth having a look at investing in next years draft if we’re going to have guys like Kennedy, Hurn, Redden, ONeill and potentially Jamieson make way without even having to think too much about it.

How the hell we could even do that at this stage is the bigger question

I'm not sure what the minimum list size is so it will be interesting to see if we already have players lined up to be traded to the club (rumours linking Powel Pepper to us).

With 7 players out of the squad already and possibly Cameron and Brander to follow, I'm not sure if the draft will be enough to replenish the list.
 
Changes 28/09/2021

Retirement: Venables, Vardy

Delisting: Hutchings, Ah Chee, Collins, Johnson, Ainsworth, Cameron

Traded out:

Traded in: Petrevski-Seton

Drafted:


More confirmation that Cameron will not be playing for the Eagles next year sees him taken off. I have added Pretrevski-Seton even though the trade period hasn't begun yet as we have confirmation from both teams that they want to see this trade happen. At least one of our picks will most likely be used unless it is a straight swap with Brander.

Also, I have checked, and squads must be between 37 and 44 players. Primary lists must have between 36 and 38 players, as well as up to 6 cat a rookies, and 2 cat b rookies.

Somehow I missed Nelson off some of these squads, hopefully it's all fixed now.
 
I have recreated the squad at the beginning of 2021 in order to compare the squad with what it looks like the Eagles are taking into 2022.

Some notes:

- There is no West or Collins in the 2021 list as they were taken in the mid-season draft
- Venables and Rioli were both not available all year, but I have included them
- The 2022 list assumes both Kennedy and Hurn go another year.
- It also assumes Petrevski-Seton is brought in as a straight swap with Brander
- The 2022 List includes 5 picks in the National Draft and 2 Rookie Picks
- I added 'R' to a couple of players in the 2022 list but that's just a guess at this stage

OP has been updated with the delistings, retirements, trades and the draft picks as they stand.

As it stands, I have the main list at 34 players, as well as 2 rookies in Jones and West. But that would mean only two players could be selected in the national draft (max on main list is 36) which must mean there is another player or two that is on the rookie list. If anyone knows, please tell me and I'll update.

Edit: Main list is 36-38. Ignore the above 🙄

Main list is 36-38 (fully included in salary cap)
Rookie cat a is 4-6 (base salary outside of salary cap, match payments inside salary cap)
Rookie cat b is 0-2 (in soft cap, outside of salary cap)

Total of main list and cat a rookies is 42.

Is our 1st pick midfielder going to push anyone out of the starting 22, if so who’s most likely to make way? Kelly, Shuey, Redden, Gaff, Sheed, SPS, Yeo
Will they just leap frog, Trew, O’Neill, Edwards, in the queue, Rioli might want a run in there too.
Or will Simpson take the conservative approach and play them in the WAFL for a year. If they can play in the WAFL.

Well firstly, if all our first pick mids are available at once, happy days! Doubt it will happen all year.

Of that list, i would expect SPS then Redden then Sheed.

I wouldn't have SPS as an automatic selection.

i would expect the MC would have the following order of preference:

SPS
Edwards
1st Pick
O'Neill
West
Trew
Other picks


But it all comes down to form and who they are replacing.

If Kelly goes down, bring in SPS
If Shuey or Yeo bring in Edwards or First Pick
Etc...
 
I've put our 2022 squad on the second post for ease of reference.

A call on Shep is imminent so this may change things.



Overall this is what changed between the start of 2021 and the start of 2022.

Out: Venables, Cameron, Brander, Johnson, Ainsworth, Ah Chee, Hutchings, Vardy
In: West, Petrevksi-Seton, Chesser, Hough, Bazzo, Williams, Clark
 
Second Post Updated after Sheppard's Retirement :(

Also added in the two Train Ons we will likely be adding to the squad.
